Gravestone is a German heavy metal band, formed in 1977 as originally a progressive rock outfit, before going in to the heavy metal genre.
Gravestone released five studio albums between 1977 and 1986 before splitting up. Several of the band members continued the band under the name 48 Crash.[1] In 2019, the band reunited to play live shows again. The current line-up is the same as in 1985 (Majdan, Reinelt, Dieth, Sabisch, Imbacher).
